Don't know what -i does, it's not a supported option, perhaps you mean
-f?

In any case, my version of postgres 7.4.7 works fine:

$ cat /tmp/f
drop user idontexist;
drop user indontexisteither;
drop user foo;
$ psql -f /tmp/f kleptog
psql:/tmp/f:1: ERROR:  user "idontexist" does not exist
psql:/tmp/f:2: ERROR:  user "indontexisteither" does not exist
psql:/tmp/f:3: ERROR:  user "foo" does not exist
$

So I think you need to post the actual error before we can help you
further.

Have a nice day,
